Insulin has both short- and long-term effects on cellular metabolism. The short-term effects are known to involve the insulin receptor, a protein kinase capable of phosphorylating itself and other proteins. The role of the receptor was elucidated by studies of a mutant insulin receptor which lacked

In this in vitro study, the distribution of the enantiomers of verapamil (VER) and its active metabolite, norverapamil (NOR), into the red blood cells (RBCs) of humans and rats was investigated using a chiral liquid chromatographic assay. When plasma was replaced with buffer, the distribution of VER
Bladder carcinomas often have an increased number of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors. The EGF receptors can, in these cases, be targets for toxic conjugates. In this study, EGF-dextran conjugates were used as targeting agents with therapeutic potential. The binding, internalization and degra
Rapid fluctuation of erythrocyte sorbitol in response to the changes in plasma glucose concentration has been reported from clinical evidence. We performed more extensive in vitro and in vivo studies focussing on how fast sorbitol was accumulated and how fast the accumulated sorbitol was oxidised in
